Chapter 591: Shopping for Good Things
Qiao Lian fell in love with the small box at a glance, it was made of golden silk nanmu, which was carved with exquisite patterns, and was also inlaid with luodian and other things, which looked very exquisite.
The woman opened the small box and saw that there was a pair of gold bracelets, both of which were inlaid with precious stones.
The gemstone shines brightly in the sun, and it is not an ordinary thing at first glance.
In addition to a pair of bracelets, there is also a jade plate and a watch.
It was a very different watch because it was a women's watch in gold.
The watch is surrounded by many precious stones, which are very delicate and beautiful, and you can tell at a glance that it is from Emperor Kant.
When Emperor Kant fled from Changchun, he brought a large number of treasures, but left even more.
The guards around the emperor saw that Emperor Kant fled in a hurry like a lost dog, and some of the guards couldn't follow, so they stole a lot of things from the palace.
In addition, when Soviet Russia sent troops here, they didn't care about the things inside, as long as they paid a certain amount of Mao Zi tickets, they could enter the small white building and take things casually.
Therefore, a large number of treasures, precious ancient books, antiques and jade, famous calligraphy and paintings, furniture and furnishings, etc., are scattered to the people.
It is said that in the 80s, the vicinity of Xiaobailou became an antique market, and many rare objects appeared.
There are many people who have found very precious treasures here.
Of course, at that time, the price of antiques was already very expensive.
It's not like right now, a little food can be exchanged for such exquisite and valuable jewelry.
"Auntie, if I want all this, how much food are you going to want?" Qiao Lian was a little moved.
She didn't care about the gold jewelry, she cared about the jade plate and the small box.
This box looks like it's not too old, and Qiaolian reached out and touched it, so that the identification function could tell her whether it was true or not.
As a result, the system told her that this was an object from the Kangxi period and was worth a lot of money.
"Oh, girl, are you going to have them all? Do you have so much food? ”
The woman seemed to be a little surprised, she didn't expect the other party to have such a big deal and plan to ask for it all.
"I have that pair of bracelets and a watch here that are worth a lot, and I don't want much, you just give me eighty catties of bud rice noodles." The woman was very worried.
This year, various parts of the north have been hit by disasters, and grain prices have risen all the way, several times.
Although the weight of the bracelet is not light, if it is sold for money, it will be worth four or five hundred yuan, but now the price of grain has risen insanely.
She went around the black market for two days, and after several people looked at things, they only gave her fifty catties of grain.
She was really unwilling, she felt that it was too little, but the family was about to stop when she saw it, and she didn't want to change the food back, but she really had nothing to eat.
"If you give me this box with you, I'll give you a hundred pounds of grain.
Fifty catties of rice, fifty catties of bud rice noodles, how about it? Qiao Lian glanced at the box and asked.
The woman thought that Qiao Lian would think that she wanted more, but she didn't think about it, Qiao Lian also added twenty catties, just to ask for the box.
What is the use of a broken wood box, even if it is delicate and beautiful?
I can get an extra 20 catties of grain, and people are talking about 50 catties of rice.
You must know that the price of rice is very high now, and the woman is very happy to be able to exchange for so much rice, and she nods and agrees without saying a word.
"But do you have a hundred pounds of grain?" The woman looked behind Qiaolian.
That big backpack is indeed not small, but it can't hold a hundred catties of food, right? Was this man joking with her?
"I must have food, I don't have that much in my hand now, you do this, give me these things in it, and I will give you fifty catties first."
You can find a way to take it and store it, and come back to me again, and I'll go back and carry the food.
What do you think? You can give me a bracelet and the watch first, and you can give me the rest when I bring the remaining fifty pounds. ”
There is a lot of food, and you can have as much as you want, but the size of the backpack behind Qiaolian is limited.
If this is to take out a hundred catties of grain, it is estimated that the other party will be frightened, so Qiao Lian thought of this way.
"Okay, okay, then do as you said, I'll give you a bracelet and a watch first, and we'll change the rest later."
The woman agreed without hesitation, "My home is near here, you give me food, I will carry it back immediately, and it won't take long to come back." ”
It can be seen that the woman's family really needs food, and she is very anxious.
Qiao Lian nodded, accepted a bracelet and a watch from the other party, and then put down the big backpack.
He took out two bags of rice from his backpack, each of which weighed twenty-five pounds.
"This is rice, fifty catties, you take it first, come back to me later, and I'll give you bud rice noodles."
The woman was very happy, thanked Qiaolian for her kindness, and then carried two bags of grain and left the place quickly.
And Qiao Lian didn't stand stupidly here, but walked to a corner, which was relatively hidden, and standing around the corner, she could clearly see where she was standing just now.
If the woman brought someone else, Qiaolian would just turn around and leave.
Fortunately, the woman was sincere in her desire to exchange, not a bad person, and after a while, I saw that the woman had come back by herself, and there was no one behind her.
The woman walked to the place where the two of them were trading just now, but she didn't see Qiao Lian, and thought that Qiao Lian had changed her mind and left, so she couldn't help but be a little disappointed.
At this time, Qiao Lian walked out from the corner, "This is fifty catties of bud rice noodles, you give me the rest of the things, take these bud rice noodles away." ”
Qiao Lian carried two bags of bud rice noodles and appeared in front of the woman.
When the woman saw Qiao Lian, the heart that was hanging just now finally let go, so she hurriedly gave Qiao Lian the box, along with a bracelet and a jade plate inside.
Qiao Lian put away her things, gave the food to the other party, and then the two separated and left in their own ways.
It took some time to deal with this woman, and after Qiao Lian walked away, she looked at her watch, and it was already past three o'clock in the afternoon.
Why don't you go to the black market again? With her footsteps, it is estimated that it will take less than 20 minutes and less than half an hour to return to the government from here.
That is, she still has more than half an hour to go.
Qiao Lian was ruthless and decided to go again.
Changchun here is obviously more good things than Linjiang, but she doesn't have a chance to come all the time, the opportunity is rare, if she doesn't find something anymore, she is really unwilling.
Thinking of this, Qiao Lian gritted her teeth and walked quickly back into the alley.
Sure enough, as soon as she went in and walked around, it didn't take long for someone to come over again, this time a man in his thirties.
The man looked embarrassed, "I have a pair of vases, I want to exchange some food, I wonder if you can exchange them for me?" ”
He had been here for a long time, and when everyone heard that it was a vase, they all shook their heads.
Real money is worthless these days, who rarely wants any vase? I finally saw a new face, so I thought I'd come over and ask.
Qiaolian came here to find some rare things, and she didn't really like gold and silver.
So when I heard the man say that there was a pair of vases, I came to the spirit.
